Desmond has a barrow in the market place
Molly is the singer in a band
Desmond says to Molly, "Girl
I like your face"
And Molly says this as she
Takes him by the hand
Ob la-di, ob la da, life goes on, brah
La la how their life goes on
Ob la-di, ob la da, life goes on, brah

Desmond takes a trolley to
The jeweler's store
Buys a twenty carat golden ring (Ring)
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
And as he gives it to her, she begins to sing
(Sing)
Ob la-di, ob la da, life goes on, brah

In a couple of years they have
Built a home sweet home
With a couple of kids running in the yard
Of Desmond and Molly Jones
(Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
Happy ever after in the market place
Desmond lets the children lend a hand

Molly stays at home and does her pretty face
And in the evening she still
Sings it with the band (Yes)
